Abstract

Es handelt sich um ein Schloßgehäuse aus Kunststoff, insbesondere Spritzguß-Kunststoff, für einen Kraftfahrzeugtürverschluß, mit einem oder mehreren elektrischen Bauteilen (6), denen elektrische Leitungen (7) mit Anschlußeinrichtungen zugeordnet sind. Die an die elektrischen Leitungen (7) anzuschließenden Bauteile (6) weisen einen oder mehrere federnde Anschlußleiter (9) zur Kontaktierung mit den Anschlußeinrichtungen (8) der elektrischen Leitungen (7) auf. Außerdem ist vorgesehen, daß die federnden Anschlußleiter (9) der elektrischen Bauteile (6) derart ausgebildet sind, daß die Federwirkung der Anschlußleiter (9) in etwa orthogonal zur Fügerichtung der elektrischen Bauteile (6) ausgerichtet ist.

Figure 00000001
It is a lock housing made of plastic, in particular injection molded plastic, for a motor vehicle door lock, with one or more electrical components (6), to which electrical lines (7) with connection devices are assigned. The components (6) to be connected to the electrical lines (7) have one or more resilient connecting conductors (9) for making contact with the connecting devices (8) of the electrical lines (7). It is also provided that the resilient connection conductors (9) of the electrical components (6) are designed such that the spring action of the connection conductors (9) is oriented approximately orthogonally to the joining direction of the electrical components (6).
